 I have ip tables running and i did a test with the -c flag but i get the 
 following response.
 
 proxy:/home# iptables -A INPUT -s 10.10.1.31 -i eth0 -c ACCEPT
 iptables v1.2.4: -c requires packet and byte counter
 
 What am i missing ? where do i get a packet and byte counter ??

-c is to *set* the packet and byte counts that are kept automatically by
the system. You can see these counts by typing iptables -L -v, and you
can zero them by using -z. You can set them to some number you like with
something like -c 10 1000. To create a rule that does nothing but count,
just create the rule without a target. Packets that match will increment
the counts but continue down the chains as if they hadn't matched
(didn't jump anywhere, so where else would they go?)

something like

iptables -A INPUT -s 10.10.1.31 -i eth0

and that's it! Then use iptables -L INPUT -v and pay attention to the
columns listed on the left.

good times,
Vineet

If you know what you want to log beforehand, you might want to have a
look at ipac. Otherwise, ulogd or trafstats may have what you need.

 Any help much appreciated

argus is a fairly general tool which can accommodate this type of monitoring.
Fetch both the argus-server and the argus-client packages. racount in 
argus-client is probably what you need.
